Is there a specific confiuration that I have to set at the server side. What is going wrong? I think i should also mention that I had trouble while installing the DBI::Proxy modules. Could that be the cause of error. I have attached the Comm.pm file

My code is as follows:

Code

#!C:\Perl\bin\perl.exe

use CGI qw(:standard); use File::Temp qw/ tempfile /; use CGI::Carp qw(warningsToBrowser fatalsToBrowser); use strict; use Spreadsheet::WriteExcel;

The reason I needed the DBD::Proxy module was that the main server from which I am redirecting my request is a freeBSD machine, and the sys. admin told me that freeBSD is not one of the supported client platforms {w/o enabling linux compatibility mode} for Oracle. So since we could not install the Oracle client on the webserver. I needed a work around to make a connection to my database. the problem is now sorted though because the sys admin has suggested using another web server on which the Oracle client can be installed and I can make a direct connection.
